Conor McGregor is NOT in talks of a potential superfight with Floyd Mayweather.

However the Dublin Mixed Martial Artist discussing a fight in with the UFC for later on this summer.

A source close to The Notorious confirmed to Mirror Sport that they "are talking about both events, UFC 201 and UFC 202 with the UFC right now, but nothing's in stone".

So sadly it seems that the McGregor v Mayweather so-called 'superfight' isn't going to happen.

The story originated from within the Mayweather camp, with the American reported to be "obsessed with making Conor eat his words".

The boxing limelight is off Mayweather this weekend with Amir Khan's fight against Saul Alvarez, run by Oscar de la Hoya's Golden Boy Promotions, taking centre stage. Of course, Mayweather, a promoter himself, is never one to be overshadowed.

But what about McGregor? Well, the confirmation today from inside his camp all but extinguishes any glimmer of hope that the Crumlin man will be fighting on the UFC's historic UFC 200 card on July 9th.

It would appear that the last few weeks of back and forth disgruntlement between the two parties has been legitimate and not a media stunt like many have suggested.

The questions that now need to be answered are - which fight card will McGregor return on? And who will his opponent be?

UFC President Dana White has previously suggested that McGregor will go on to face the winner of Jose Aldo vs Frankie Edgar, which will take place at UFC 200.
